Quantum Computing and AI in Symbiotic Harmony – Drishti IAS
This editorial is based on When AI meets Quantum Computing which was published in The Hindu Business Line on 22/11/2023. It discusses the potential applications and challenges of combining artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing, two of the most promising technologies of the 21st century.
Quantum Computing (QC) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are two of the most transformative technologies in our era, pushing the boundaries of computation and cognition. Although they may seem to follow separate paths at first, QC redefines the limits of speed and parallelism while AI reshapes our understanding of intelligence and automation. However, when these paths intersect, the potential outcomes become extraordinary and formidable. The convergence of Quantum Computing and Artificial Intelligence amplifies the strengths of each, offering a symbiotic relationship that transcends the limitations of traditional computing.
The intersection of quantum computing and artificial intelligence represents more than just a technological advancement; it marks a profound leap forward. This convergence fundamentally alters the landscape of computation, scientific exploration, and ethical governance. The interdependence between these fields holds the promise to redefine our digital future, providing answers to challenges that were once considered insurmountable.
Drishti Mains Question:
Analyze the ethical considerations associated with the integration of quantum computing and AI. How can these concerns be mitigated?
Q. Which one of the following is the context in which the term "qubit" is mentioned?
(a) Cloud Services (b) Quantum Computing (c) Visible Light Communication Technologies (d) Wireless Communication Technologies
Ans: (b)
The rest is here:
